Abstract:
MATWRAP is a collection of derived types and generic subprograms in
Fortran 95 that implements matrix operations and computes matrix
functions and decompositions. Although MATWRAP is not based on a
formally defined matrix language, the results of using MATWRAP are
akin to coding in a subset of a matrix oriented programming languages
like MATLAB, OCTAVE, etc., but with the potential computational
advantages of a compiled language. By using routines from LAPACK and
the BLAS, MATWRAP allows the user to obtain the benefits of these
packages with minimal fuss and bother. This talk describes the
structure and capabilities of MATWRAP, with illustrative examples.
